This bitter earth
Well, what fruit it bears?
What good is love, love?
That no one shares And if my life is like the dust
That hides the glow of a rose
What good am I?
Heaven only knows Ooh, this bitter earth
Well, can be so cold
On this day you're young
Too soon you're old But while a voice within me cries
Someone may answer my call
And this bitter earth, ooh
May not be so bitter after all This bitter earth
Can be so cold
Today you're young, young
Too soon, too old I said, this bitter earth
Can be so cold
Today you're young, so young
Before you know it, you're growing old While a voice within me cries
Someone may answer my call
And this bitter earth, ooh
May not be so bitter, so bitter after all This bitter earth
